Worked hard on this particular day but very apparent the captain wanted us to catch fish. Tried for many different options. And, in the end, changed strategies and fish we were targeting to provide us with real thrills and satisfaction. Personable, committed to giving customers a great experience, willing even to bend the time to do so. I would heartily recommend Aneclote Adventure and would definite book with him again! P.S. His boat is a fun one to fish from.
We had a blast today 9 July 2023 with a wonderful tour and historic review of fishing locations, the Anclote Key lighthouse, various hidden treasures beaches only accessible via boat, and various ship wrecks- Tarpon Tours and a variety of historic and local facts about this gorgeous fishing area. Capt Brian was simply stellar in his knowledge of the area and his safety practices on open sea! I was delighted with the tour and new expectations to come back for more to learn and eco with our new friend and Capt. Brian. Thanks for getting my kids and me a great run for the money and excellent experience of the Great Anclote fishing and beach areas. You were amazing and we shall definitely be back shortly. Sincerely, Ricky Abreu
We took my kids out for a 2 hour inshore fishing experience and we have a BLAST! The boat was plenty big for us all to sit and fish comfortably without being in each others way. Captain Brian was very accommodating he did clock watch and made sure we caught fish and had a great time. He was very patient with the kids teaching them how to bait their own hooks and handling the fish. We will definitely be back and I would highly recommend taking a trip for yourself!
Had the best time out with Brian and my family. We caught 6 fish, and my 12 year old had the time of his life. Brian was great, took us to a few spots and helped out non stop with tending to everyone's lines and making sure everyone had fun. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a fun day fishing.

Your captain
Captain Brian has been fishing the Tarpon Springs area for more than two decades. As a carpenter, he didn't have a traditional work schedule, so he would find himself on the water three to five times a week, many times staying out from before sunrise to nearly sunset. After getting older, he decided to get his captain's license so that he can share his love of fishing and the water with others.
